I am currently looking to supervise a number of graduate students in the
area of communication algorithm design, information theory and experimental
prototype design for diffuse, point-to-point and pixelated MIMO wireless
optical channels. Students with a keen interest in communications systems
and practical modem design and skills in programming and mathematics are
always welcome.
Presently I have openings for two PhD and one Masters candidate to study
free-space optical and indoor optical wireless communications starting no
later than Sept.2009. Students in this program will study communication and
information theory for these channels and develop novel coding and
modulation to overcome many channel impairments. Also, we have recently
received funding to construct a 2km, 2Gbps free-space optical link on
campus. Students with and interest in Verilog and communication systems are
encouraged to apply. Interested students with a strong academic record and a publication track record should email me to find out more details. |
